Dear Paladins

[Lynesse]

I play tons of both roles. It's easy for me to tell when a healer is struggling. Sometimes healers will make risky plays without having a sense for the rhythm of the incoming damage. Sometimes they just won't be using their kits right. That'll make me Clemency.

People make mistakes. I'm an accomplished SCH, and I vividly recall one or two instances where a mistake I've made has forced a PLD to Clemency. I mean, I've killed tanks before. We all have. But in these instances, you thank god the PLD is on top of things, stabilize the pull, and do as much damage as possible to make up for it.

There's usually a way to turn that Clemency into a DPS gain for yourself.
